Star Wars Adventures: Forces of Destiny Comic Arrives in 2018

Although Star Wars: Forces of Destiny, the web series focused on the franchise’s iconic female characters, has already aired 12 of its 16 expected episodes, Lucasfilm and IDW Publishing have announced a partnership to bring a weekly five-issue series called Star Wars Adventures: Forces of Destiny to fans starting in January.

The series will come out weekly and feature many of the franchise’s most popular heroines, including Leia, Rey, Padmé, Ahsoka and Hera. The stories will also feature Rose and Paige, who will debut in Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

Elsa Charretier (Starfire) will both write and provide art. She’s also set to create a series of five interconnected variant covers that will combine to create a single Force of Destiny image. There will also be animation cell variant covers and a “super-rare” variant by Annie Wu.

“The Forces of Destiny initiative has won over fans with its inspiring tales about these iconic heroes,” said IDW Senior Editor Denton J. Tipton. “IDW Publishing couldn’t be more excited to be part of the celebration of these beloved characters.”
